Résumé

Pelvic and paraaortic lymphadenectomy are recommended for women with high-intermediate, high-risk and advanced endometrial cancer (EC). Lymphadenectomy is less frequently performed in elderly patients than in younger patients. We examined the survival of elderly women diagnosed with high-risk EC according to whether lymphadenectomy was performed or not.
